John James Dukes Sr.

Hello, My name is Mark Leroy Dukes. Im 47 years old and live in Oklahoma City Oklahoma where my father "Matthew Driscol Dukes and my mother 'Ila Jo Walker' settled soon after the end of the Korean Conflict. My mother is from Fannin Co, Bonham Tx. My father is son to Oscar Marshal Dukes who retired from the United States Army. Oscar Marshal is from Rusk Co, Henderson, Tx where is was born to John James Dukes Sr. My grandmother Tressie Maxine Woods and Oscar Marshal met sometime around the beginnings of WWI. I'm new to ancestry and the issues involved but have become stumped in my search. James Ausbarn Dukes and his second Wife, Sarah Wilson have eluded me. I cant get the out of Alabama previous to the Civil War. If there is someone who could help me I would greatly appreciate it. Thank you.
